Baseball Notes.
The indianapolis directors say they do not
need Poorman. and that out of the men already
signed the League team is to be filed
Hackett formerly of the Kansas City club,
signed with the INDIANAPOLIS yesterday. His
batting percentage on frst-base hits last season
was .2l7 and average per game. LOB. In field
ing his accepted percentage is .778.
There has been some abuse of the courresies
of season passes, and on this account President
Newberger will have all those first issued called
in to-day, and in their place will be given, be-
fore the season opens, passes OF different
form.
An event in exhibition games will be the ap-
peaiance of the ChicaRos and st. Louis the
Indianapolis grounds the 10Th inst The contest
between these two clubs yesterday and the sue
cess of the former but adds interest to the
rivalry.
Ramsay, as evidenced yesterday, under the
new rules, is coming to the front one of the
best pitchers in the country. Striking out
eleven men in a game is something that was OF
rare occurrence even when 1t required only three
good balls to do the work
Kerins is said to have remarked that the new
rules wouldn't work at all-tnat the batter would
simply wait until five bad balls were pitched,
and then take his base Kirby destroyed this
pleasant illusion yesterday and compelled him
to either strike at the ball or be called out

be Secrecy, left field; Glasscock, short-stop Den
ny, third; Shomberg, FIRST; McGeachey, center
field Bassett, second; Myers, catcher; Cahiii

villes will return here on the 25th for the last
exhibition game prior to the opening of the
League series, on the 18th.
ST. Louis Globe Democrat: Jerry Denny will
play the game of his life this season. His WORK
on Tuesday was marvellous. 1t was
rumored yesterday that it was about settled tina,
Indianapolis is to have Poorman. If the Hoos-
iers get him they will get man who can give
Cahill points about the right garden.
Jack Gasscock is still the king of short-stops.
His work here was of the phenomenal order, and
his one-hand stop in Tuesdays game showed
that be has not forgotten his old trick of cutting
off base hits
